Welcome Fashionista/o! I’m Victoria and I am in my sophomore year at Rider University, studying marketing with a minor in event planning. This is my second semester as a Style Guru and I love being apart of the #GuruGang. I am excited for another #RAD semester filled with fashion, friends, and lots of fun!
Along with being involved with College Fashionista, I spend my free time dancing, binge watching Netflix, quoting The Office, online shopping (aka putting items in my cart but not having money to actually purchase), and stalking Instagram/blogs for inspiration. I have always enjoyed DIY crafts and am currently in the works of opening an online shop with my mom. I describe my style as “boho chic” with retro influences, but honestly if I like it, I’ll wear it. I am always down for trying out new trends and incorporating them into my everyday look.
For the look pictured, I drew inspiration from a few current trends as well as taking full advantage of my wonderful holiday gifts (Thanks Mom). I started with a flannel dress paired with a faux fur bomber jacket. This jacket has been my go-to so far this winter. OTK boots are a must at the moment so I couldn’t help but have this Sam Edelman pair. These boots get bonus points because they allow you to wear dresses in the winter since only a little skin is exposed to the chilly temperatures. As for accessories, I top off the outfit with some Ray Bans, a homemade choker (Thanks again Mom) and the Henri Bendel Jetsetter backpack (and again). I’ve wanted this bag since CollegeFashionista hosted an event with them over the summer and once I saw this one with the cute embroidered stars… it was love at first sight.
